Seriously, these Idaho Republicans are killing people, they are nasty cruel to the poor, elderly, people with disabilities and those without extraordinary means in Idaho. I see now they are touting a bill originally pioneered by the Aryan Nations and Bob Butler during the 1990s that would allow for legal discrimination against minorities, women, and gays by claiming it is part of their twisted and perverted brand of Christian Religion. It is part of my religion to exclude calling those that push for this hatred and inhumanity as being ever referred
to as human beings. I wouldn't even call them animals, because wild animals aren't even this cruel and nasty to each other. </span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div><span>Donovan J.

committee votes to kill Medicaid expansion</h3>
<div><span>BOISE, Idaho (AP) - The House
Health and Welfare Committee rejected a proposal to increase health care
coverage for low-income Idahoans, putting the final nail in the coffin of
Medicaid expansion hopes.</span></div>
<div><span>Rep. John Rusche, D-Lewiston,
had promoted the bill as a way to help the state's poor, who are particularly
vulnerable without coverage, as well as save hospitals and businesses
millions.</span></div>
<div><span>He faced opposition from Gov.
C.L. "Butch" Otter, who has already spoken out against the expansion of
eligibility, as well as his Republican majority colleagues.</span></div>
<div><span>Lawmakers voted along party
lines Wednesday, dooming the bill before it could make it to a full committee
debate.</span></div>
<div><span>Detractors said it wasn't the
right time to implement eligibility for the state's working poor.</span></div>
<div><span>Rusche said Idaho is "missing an opportunity."</span></div></div>
